Sewing Curves On The Bottom Of A Coin Purse

Video Transcript

"Okay, since we just marked the curve and sewed around the curve of the little coin purse that we're making. I'm going to go ahead and make a second stitch around this because I noticed this fabric is a little frayed and when I trim it it's going to be trimmed really close and I just don't want it to come loose. Then also, what I want to do, if you'll look at this purse, it kind of goes in at the top a little bit and kind of flares out. It gives it a nice, you know, look that, you know, looks pleasing to the eye. And I want that same look on this one. I can make it straight if I wanted to but I like it better curved in. So when I look at the top of the purse, the top of the purse up here, I just want to go in maybe just like a quarter of an inch; just a tiny bit on each side. It'll make a difference. So I'm going to start here. And just angle it down to here, to about maybe where I started my chalk lines in the first place. Back tack here and over my zipper again. And then, I'm just going to run along the outside. Maybe just a quarter of an inch right around the edge of that, where you sewed with the chalk. And around this side. Then when I get to this point I'm going to go right to where I made my mark, but now I want to head for this mark at the top, to give that angle. Oh, and there's my zipper. Make sure I go over that several times. Then back up here and back tack again. Okay, now that we have all this sewn. We have that second stitch where it doesn't come unfrayed what we've got to do is trim it out and flip it out and we're almost done with this purse."
